The Sketties music is an original mix of paradoxical, swaggering "desert" rock blended with acoustic intervals that rise and fall with intensity and mood. Inspired by the tragic and comical ironies of life, we attempt to experiment with many styles and sounds now and in the future.

The Sketties began in March of 2007. After only two weeks they played their first show at the late Trio Lounge in Ephrata PA. From Pittsburgh to New York City and everywhere in-between, The Sketties have been building momentum in the greater Pennsylvania area. They recently completed their self Debut EP "THE DECISIVE SUFFICEIT" (recorded and co-produced with Rodney Nitram). A fiery group of four songs, "THE DECISIVE SUFFICEIT" displays the creative and d somewhat strange arrangements of the music they love.

"This is pop music from the planet Tralfamadore, a Vonnegutian assemblage of chords that is wry, smart, dark, strangely alluring and, above all, weird." -Jeff Royer The Fly Magazine

"The Sketties music is like taking two pieces of jellied toast and smashing them into each other to have a gooey mess of rock and roll goodness to get your grandma shakin' in her pajamas." -Jonny @ Zradio
